Erin McGee is a playwright, dramaturg and Company Administrator for Scotland's leading theatre company for work by and about women, Stellar Quines. Her recent play, Mooning, is part of the Traverse Theatre's Breakfast Plays series at the Edinburgh Fringe.
At the heart of the Traverse is a past and present full of daring, forward-facing artists. This year’s Breakfast Plays give a glimpse of the now and new from four of the most exciting rising voices in Scottish theatre.
You can catch Mooning - a play about cults, bats and the man on the moon - on the 21st and 25th August at 9am. Book your tickets via the Traverse website - https://www.traverse.co.uk/whats-on/event/breakfast-plays-the-future-is

Mentored by established playwrights Zinnie Harris, Stephen Greenhorn, Linda McLean and Douglas Maxwell, four emergent women writers (Erin McGee, Eve Nicol, Kolbrún Björt Sigfúsdóttir, Diane Stewart) showcase the imminent future of Scottish new writing talent.
Their plays; poetic, punchy, generous and unforgiving will tackle topics exploring where we are and where we might be headed next - politically, socially, culturally.
